How it works

Its dispel type is client id 1.

Static Cling is built from 2 client effects, applied in this order:

  1. Effect 1 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 23. Its area radius is 50000 yards. It ticks every 0.5 sec, 36 times over the full 18 sec. It triggers Static Cling.
  2. Effect 2 is Apply Aura (effect type 6). It applies aura type 26. Its area radius is 50000 yards.

What it does

Static Cling is a Nature spell with a 1.2 sec cast, an unlimited range and effects that last 18 sec. When cast it applies an aura in a 50000 yard radius every 0.5 sec and applies an aura in a 50000 yard radius. The client files the whole spell under the rooted mechanic. It also casts Static Cling (record #87619).

Generated from the SpellEffect, SpellMisc, SpellCooldowns and SpellRange records in the MoP Classic client, build 5.5.4.70531. Effects the client marks as internal hooks are left out.
